Take a practioner’s approach in analyzing the Internet of Things (IoT) devices and the security issues facing an IoT architecture. You’ll review the architecture's central components, from hardware communication interfaces, such as UARTand SPI, to radio protocols, such as BLE or ZigBee. You'll also learn to assess a device physically by opening it, looking at the PCB, and identifying the chipsets and interfaces. You'll then use that information to gain entry to the device or to perform other actions, such as dumping encryption keys and firmware. As the IoT rises to one of the most popular tech trends, manufactures need to take necessary steps to secure devices and protect them from attackers. The IoT Hacker's Handbook breaks down the Internet of Things, exploits it, and reveals how these devices can be built securely. What You’ll Learn Perform a threat model of a real-world IoT device and locate all possible attacker entry points Use reverse engineering of firmware binaries to identify security issues Analyze,assess, and identify security issues in exploited ARM and MIPS based binaries Sniff, capture, and exploit radio communication protocols, such as Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), and ZigBee Who This Book is For Those interested in learning about IoT security, such as pentesters working in different domains, embedded device developers, or IT people wanting to move to an Internet of Things security role. Review: Good so far! - Admittedly, I haven't finished the book (or even most of it) quite yet, but am really happy with it so far / will try to remember to update this once I have. I just wanted to leave a review ASAP in the meantime for the opportunity to say how much I enjoyed reading the earlier review that was a) 3 words long and b) complained about a lack of detail! LMAO Review: Love the book 101/100 get it it's worth it. - Only 4 chapters in and I love the book. A few grammar mistakes but the book talks alot about IOT hacking. I knew most of it but some stuff I didn't, it was really good to know. The book has alot of useful tips and tricks and methods for a new and advanced users. Alot of links and websites to Important information. If you want to know more or just love hacking this book teaches you alot to get you spun up fast. The author put in a lot of time and effort into the making of this book. While there is only 10 chapters it has a ton of good read.

excellent
Great coverage of ideas with tools and steps, screenshots and examples using real word everyday devices. Really appreciated the practitioner advice and the level of detail. Also the link references on where to find things and pictures of what they look like were excellent as well. Thanks again.

Exactly what I was looking for
Disclaimer: I am total novice in the space of network security. I just read the first chapter yesterday night and learned so much!

IOT hacking the real deal beginner or advanced something for everyone here
This book is a must have for into to IOT hacking the author is the real deal. This is not a book that promises IOT and then gives you the basics of Wireshark and the OSi model this book actually shows how to extract firmware from a device then reverse engineer it.

Exceptional book for IoT Hackers
I am currently finishing a Masters in Cybersecurity, and my dissertation relates to the hacking of smart security devices. This book is an absolute godsend! It's laid out in a comprehensible format, and there is honestly something useful on every page. It is also written in an engaging style, something that a lot of computing books fail at. The material is up to date; there are some techniques not mentioned here, but that is to be expected given the lead time on printing and editing a book. There are a lot of excellent and easy to follow practical examples for each technique and protocol. I would recommend this for anyone wanting to look at IoT hacking or penetration testing. It does expect a reasonable level of competence, but assuming you have that I cannot recommend it highly enough. This, along with "Practical IoT Hacking", is an absolute must have!

Interesting, but maybe not for a book
The content is good, especially if you are new to network security filed like me. But, it feels more like a long blog post than a book.

My review
Author has seems to have limited knowledge, apart from the affinity badge no other tools are mentioned...accessing services over UART although functional is painfully slow.
